Tottenham prepared to offer £96,000-a-week contract to ‘world class’ winger

Tottenham Hotspur are willing to offer a lucrative contract to a highly-rated attacker on the continent.

Tottenham kicked off their pre-season preparations yesterday as they defeated Hearts 5-1 in a friendly fixture.

New arrivals Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray really impressed whilst 16-year-old sensation Mikey Moore stole much of the headlines.

There’s certainly a plethora of young talent coming through but Ange Postecoglou is still eager to add some experience.

With that said, Spurs are eager to sign a 26-year-old attacker and put him on a substantial wage.
